Current IssueVoices of the Industry
We take the pulse of the PCB industry by sharing insights from leading fabricators and suppliers in this month's issue. We've gathered their thoughts on the new U.S. administration, spending, the war in Ukraine, and their most pressing needs. It’s an eye-opening and enlightening look behind the curtain.
The Essential Guide to Surface Finishes
We go back to basics this month with a recount of a little history, and look forward to addressing the many challenges that high density, high frequency, adhesion, SI, and corrosion concerns for harsh environments bring to the fore. We compare and contrast surface finishes by type and application, take a hard look at the many iterations of gold plating, and address palladium as a surface finish.
It's Show Time!
In this month’s issue of PCB007 Magazine we reimagine the possibilities featuring stories all about IPC APEX EXPO 2025—covering what to look forward to, and what you don’t want to miss.

Excellon Automation Lauches New Facility
January 3, 2024 | Excellon AutomationEstimated reading time: 1 minute

An exciting 2023 has come to a close for the team at Excellon Automation Company with the debut of a new facility.
Excellon’s president, Bailey Su, relays, “This year we turned on operations at our newly designed manufacturing facility, added new product lines, and increased staffing in the key areas of engineering, production, and service in North America. The changes we’ve implemented throughout this past year are making us more competitive in the PCB manufacturing space.”
The layout of Excellon’s new facility located in Paramount, California, was designed to enhance multiple parallel threads of sub-assembly manufacturing. An increase in the capacity of such concurrent processes feeding into the final assembly stage has dramatically reduced production lead-times. A new MRP system has been integrated to better drive material flow plans and production schedules.
According to Nghia Tran, production manager, “With the implementation of our new strategy, production schedules have shown a 15 to 18% improvement in lead-time reduction.”
All Excellon systems are designed and manufactured in California. Product lines include mechanical drill and drill-router platforms (single to six spindle configurations) and the COBRA II laser systems. Excellon also offers spindle rebuild and electronics repair services at the IER operations in Riverside, California.
Excellon, an employee-owned company, continues to invest and build best of technology products, supplying these systems to PCB, EMS and laser services companies.
